Description
Great Mount is a house that now serves as the clubhouse for Mount Skip Golf Course. It dates from the late 16th century and has undergone alterations in the mid-20th century. The building is constructed of large dressed stone and features a stone slate roof, standing two storeys high. Originally, it had a three-room through-passage plan, but the service end has been rebuilt with a late 19th-century barn that has been converted for club use, which is not included in the listing.
The surviving parts of the building include a hall and a projecting cross-wing under a cat-slide roof that connects to the main range. There is a lean-to porch against the projecting barn, which has a deeply roll-moulded surround and a date roughly scratched on the quoin that reads "1779." The inner door features a deeply chamfered surround, similar to that of the rear door serving the through-passage.
All ground floor windows are double chamfered mullioned windows with cavetto moulded mullions and a continuous hoodmould above. There is a two-light fire-window and a six-light housebody window with a king mullion, although it is missing two mullions. The wing projects forward, and only three lights remain from what was originally a six-light window. The first-floor windows have been altered in a way that is not sympathetic to the building's character.
The right-hand return wall displays a wide coped gable with differing roof pitches. At the rear, there is a two-light window above the through-passage door, along with an outshut that has a former three-light chamfered mullioned window to the left and a three-light double chamfered mullioned window above it on the first floor. A single stack is present on the ridge.
